Yun Dingxing calmed down at this time, after all, he has been immersed in officialdom for decades, and has experienced countless peaks and troughs in his life, and his judgment ability and experience at critical times are much stronger and richer than Cen Wenwen, a young man.

He has realized that the content of Zhang Xuan's letter may be the key, Yun Dingxing opened the letter, carefully read this letter related to his net worth, he read it three times, before he fully understood Zhang Xuan's intentions, although Zhang Xuan did not give him any promise in the letter, but the old and sophisticated Yun Dingxing understands that sometimes there is no commitment but it is more reliable than having a promise, having a promise is a gift mentality, and no commitment is a favor.

Yun Dingxing carefully tucked away the letter and said to Cen Wenwen: "I am very willing to help Mr. with all my might, although Mr. said it bluntly, what do you need me to do?" ”

Cen Wenwen was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "We have infiltrated a thousand soldiers in Luoyang before, and now these thousand soldiers are in the team to deliver food, and we need to place them in the general's team." ”

Yun Dingxing thought for a while and said: "At present, there are a total of 5,000 troops here in Luokoucang, of which 3,000 are my subordinates, but if I mix a thousand Sui soldiers into it, it is likely to be reported by the people in the army, everyone is acquaintances, this kind of thing is difficult to hide, the only way is for me to respond to the prince's order, let the third son Yun Shitai lead 3,000 troops to rescue the Tiger Pass, and then let General Wei capture them all, and the 1,000 soldiers of the Sui army can be returned as a defeated army, I lead this 1,000 defeated army back to Luoyang, what does Mr. think?" ”

Cen Wenwen nodded secretly in his heart, Jiang is worthy of being old and spicy, this method is really leaky, he immediately agreed, "I think it's feasible, General Yun, let's arrange it separately!" ”

Cen Wenwen discussed some details with Yun Dingxing again, and then left.

As soon as Cen Wenwen left, Yun Dingxing ordered his own soldiers: "Quickly order the third general to come to see me!" ”

The third general is Yun Dingxing's third son, Yun Shitai, who is currently in the army as the general of Yingyanglang, and he controls Yun Dingxing's 3,000 directly subordinate troops.

Yun Dingxing has been in the officialdom for many years, and knows the importance of attitude, when he and his family are facing a turning point in fate, he must use the most resolute attitude, mobilize the greatest resources and the greatest sacrifice to express his loyalty to Zhang Xuan, the slightest hesitation and reservation will weaken his attitude, thereby damaging his future interests.

It was precisely because of this understanding that Yun Dingxing decided to make the Sui army capture Luoyang smoothly at all costs.

.........

Another hour passed, and it gradually came to noon, at this time, as hundreds of Tiger Prison Pass were defeated and fled to Luokoucang, they brought the news that shocked everyone, Tiger Prison Pass had been lost, and the Sui army was about to kill Luokoucang.

Luokoucang was in chaos all of a sudden, because the team transporting grain stretched for hundreds of miles, most of the 100,000 people were on the way to transport grain, and there were less than 30,000 people in Luokoucang.

Yun Dingxing immediately ordered all the people to be expelled from Cangcheng and close the gate of Cangcheng to prevent the people from taking advantage of the chaos to rob Cangcheng.

Cangcheng itself has 2,000 garrisons, commanded by Liu Hong, the general of Yingyanglang, Liu Hong is Wang Shiyun's man, stationed in Luokou Cang for two years, he also learned the news of the loss of the Tiger Prison Pass, frightened, and hurriedly ran to Yun Dingxing to discuss countermeasures.

In the official hall of Cangcheng, more than a dozen officials had already surrounded Yun Dingxing, gossiping, all panicked, Yun Dingxing saw Liu Hong hurriedly come in, so he said loudly to the officials: "My son has led the army to block the Sui army, the Sui army should not be killed so quickly, everyone heard about me, we only need to do one thing, burn all the account books, and immediately withdraw to Luoyang after burning, don't open it after Cangcheng is closed, go quickly!" ”

As if they had heard the holy decree, everyone rushed out of the hall in a panic, and at this time, Liu Hong stepped forward quickly and said, "General, what should my army do?" ”

Liu Hong was ashamed and scared in his heart, ashamed that Yun Dingxing sent his son to lead the army to block the Sui army, but his own army did not contribute at all, and he was afraid that what if Yun Dingxing also let his army stop the Sui army? ”

Yun Dingxing sighed and said: "It was the order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that I sent Shi Tai to help the Tiger Prison Pass, I didn't know that the Tiger Prison Pass had been lost, if I knew that I would never put my son in danger, I estimate that Luokou Cang can't hold it, General Liu will withdraw to Luoyang with me later!" All the responsibility is on me. ”

Liu Hong was suddenly very grateful in his heart, and said that Yun Dingxing would be a person, and he was really considerate of his subordinates, he saw that there was no one left and right, and said in a low voice: "There are 300,000 yuan of money hidden in a cellar, which is the money of His Royal Highness King Zhao, and tens of thousands of silk horses, the reality is critical, I want to bring it back to Luoyang, and the general will see if there is any way?" ”

King Zhao is Wang Shiyun, he inserted his henchman Liu Hongan into the town to guard Luokoucang, which is the grain of Mouluokoucang, Yun Dingxing of course knows that this 300,000 yuan is the profit of Wang Shiyun's illegal sale of grain, he thought about it and said: "Then arrange a team of people, let them unload the last batch of grain, and change this batch of money, I will say hello to Cangcheng, you go and arrange it!" ”

"Thank you, General!" Liu Hong was grateful, and hurriedly went to arrange the transportation of copper coins after making a salute.

The situation became more and more critical, and about half an hour later, Yun Shitai led more than 1,000 soldiers to escape and asked in a loud voice to Liu Hong, who was closing the warehouse door: "General Liu, where is my father?" ”

"The third general is back, and your father will come out immediately."

Liu Hong asked worriedly: "Third General, what is the situation ahead?" ”

"You must leave immediately, the Sui army has at least 30,000 troops, my front army has been ambushed, and the whole army has been wiped out, I only fled back with the rest of the brothers, and now the Sui army's forward is probably only twenty miles away from us."

Liu Hong was taken aback, there are only twenty miles, what can I do?

At this time, Yun Dingxing rode out of the small gate, he saw his son, and said with great joy: "Wu'er has finally come back safely." ”

Yun Shitai shouted, "Father, go away!" The advance of the Sui army is only twenty miles away from us. ”

Yun Dingxing nodded and said to Liu Hong: "General Liu, let's go!" ”

At this time, several official offices on the periphery of Cangcheng have been lit up in a raging fire, because Cangcheng has good fire prevention measures, the ignition of the peripheral buildings can not affect the grain in the grain cellar, this is also to make a superficial article, to Wang Shichong an explanation, lest Wang Shichong suspect him of the enemy, the cunning Yun Dingxing is very good at protecting himself, he said that he has burned Luokoucang with a fire, who knows whether it is true or false, and it is meaningless when he knows the truth.

Everyone quickly evacuated Luokou Cangcheng and retreated towards Luoyang City.

........

At the same time when Yun Dingxing and they evacuated, the crown prince Wang Xuanying stood on the head of the city and looked at the east worriedly, and the smoke column of Luokou Cang could be seen hundreds of miles away in the distance, and the smoke column of Luokou Cang could be seen from Luoyang City, indicating that the smoke in Cangcheng was at least 100 zhang high, which meant that Luokou Cang was setting fire to the warehouse, which also indirectly proved that the situation of the Tiger Prison Pass was extremely unoptimistic, and it was very likely that the Tiger Prison Pass had been lost, otherwise why would Yun Dingxing burn Luokou Cangcheng?

At this time, there was a soldier behind him, "His Royal Highness King Zhao has come down!" ”

As soon as Wang Xuanying turned around, he saw his eldest uncle Wang Shiyun coming in a hurry, because he was obese and soaked with sweat, Wang Xuanying hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Nephew, see Uncle Huang!" ”

"Hey! I heard that there was an accident in Luokoucang, so I came to take a look. ”

Wang Xuanying nodded, pointed to the smoke pillar in the distance and said: "It is that smoke pillar, it is estimated to be at least a hundred zhang high, otherwise Luoyang would not be able to see it." ”

Wang Shiyun also saw a thin pillar of smoke in the distance, and his fat face like a large disc turned pale, he had a lot of interests in Luokoucang, if Luokoucang was destroyed by fire, what should his interests do?

Wang Xuanying thought that his uncle was as worried about the stability of the Tiger Prison Pass as he was, and he said worriedly: "My nephew is most worried about the Tiger Prison Pass, since Yun Dingxing has retreated from the burning warehouse, there may be more and less luck on the Tiger Prison Pass." ”

Only then did Wang Shiyun react and said hurriedly: "Did the imperial nephew report to the saint?" ”

"My father has been locked up in the inner palace and refuses to see me." Wang Xuanying sighed in frustration.

"No, it won't! I heard that someone went into the palace last night to report to the Holy One. ”

"Who is it?"

"Don't ask who the emperor's nephew is, but I remind the virtuous nephew that without the approval of the saint, it is best not to transfer troops without authorization, that is a big taboo!"

Wang Xuanying was stunned for a moment, could it be that he ordered Yun Dingxing to rescue the Tiger Prison Pass yesterday, and was told where his father was? Uncle Huang clearly said this is this.

As soon as his mind turned, Wang Xuanying immediately understood who had accused his father of his black state, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly, the situation in the court was already so critical, and he still had to compete with himself for the position of the crown prince, which was really too ignorant.
